22 days in Nairobi & Tsavo National Park East Itinerary

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Samburu National Reserve and Horseback Riding Tours. Visiting Nairobi National Park and Giraffe Centre will get you outdoors. Change things up with these side-trips from Nairobi: Mount Longonot (in Maai Mahiu) and The Reserve at Rimpa Estates Wildlife Conservancy (in Kiserian). Spend the 24th (Mon) spotting exotic species with a safari tour. Spend the 23rd (Sun) behind the viewfinder with an inspiring photography tour. And it doesn't end there: tour the pleasant surroundings at Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, take in the exciting artwork at Nairobi Gallery, see Off-Road Tours, and stop by Anselm's Kitengela Hot Glass.
